The father of an 11-month-old baby says his family home in Salford has been riddled with mould and damp for EIGHT years. Andrew Cooper says it is only now that the Pendleton Together housing association is starting to try to sort the problem out.
Andrew, 51, and his 33-year-old wife Kirsty say they have been offered lodgings at a hotel but have turned it down because they have two dogs and four cats at their two-bedroom Woolpack Green flat. The couple would like to be moved to alternative housing but Pendleton Together says there is the only other alternative is a move to a high-rise flat.
The Coopers are meeting with Salford and Eccles MP Rebecca Long-Bailey and a representative of the housing association tomorrow (Tuesday, March 28). “We’ve had this problem for eight years,” said Andrew.
